Memorize Word Scores
The first and coolest reason why the WordFinder unscrambler is a helpful tool is it can help you memorize Scrabble scores for individual words.
Every Scrabble player should learn each letter’s point value and memorize them. (The values are printed on the tiles, so you don’t really have an excuse not to know them.) The more complicated skill is to memorize an entire word’s value without calculating it in your head each time.
Let WordFinder’s word unscrambling tool help you. Even if you know what words you want to play, type your rack of letters into the search bar and see what words pop up. That’s all you need to do. The tool will display the possible words, but it will also provide the scores for those words. This makes it easy for you to visually associate a score with a word.
